But I had a change of employment, was going out of state, didn't know when I would be back and sold it to a local guy. It's still in his garage, hasn't been out in over 30 years.
I made a post in a group on facebook bout this car. This is what came back

"Dell Jones: The car is still alive and well. I talked to the guy that has it. He wanted to know where I got his phone number and he wasn't interested in giving information. Mark and I have run into this a lot."

"Wade Owens: He used to run at our local track. Had a hemi willys before this."


"Nitro Joe Jackson: we beat him in the finals of a really big Modified event they had in St Louis in 1977, really neat car, he was running 4A/HR back then"
